From Estimating Biomass with GEDI to Estimating Biomass Change with OBIWAN API

In this section:

GEDI mission biomass estimation: theory and products

  • Introduction to model-based statistics and uncertainty 
  • Use of GEDI as a sampling instrument to estimate large-area mean biomass
  • GEDI L4A and L4B biomass products

OBIWAN: estimating biomass change with GEDI and Landsat time series

  • Integrating GEDI and Landsat time series to estimate biomass change
  • Bootstrapping to derive uncertainty
  • Calibration to remove bias
